In my 2011 Standard Catalog it shows a value of $1.00 for VF and $10.00 for XF. KM#787.

 

Nice coin, worth probably around a dollar or two. It says here https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces778.html that it is made out of copper-nickel.

 

I have a box of world coins im not into. Thinking of dropping the lot on eBay.

 

If I recall correctly, those were minted by the boatload. Lots of those to be found in the 5-for-a-dollar bucket at coin shops and shows.

By the way, yours is a 58, not 57. All (most?) Spanish coins from that era had 1957 on the obverse, but the actual year of issue is contained within the tiny star on the reverse. I believe that was continued into the mid-70s, maybe longer.

Edit: My apology, Mr. Pie. I failed to see on first reading that you noted the 58 star.

 

I love world coins best. If you keep them maybe a younger family member may appreciate them in the future.

 

I like how the letters in Francisco Franco look unique

 

My daughter's love coins, however, they caught the "rainbow toned" passion from me.

 

Adorable!

 

You could donate them to your local coin club.

 

PTAS is short for Pesetas.
That's how the word Quarter translates into spanish.. 1 Quarter is Una Peseta
